Another stop on a walk and drive through the Presidio.
Fort Winfield Scott was established in 1912 and was designated as the headquarters for San Francisco Coastal defense, controlling Forts Baker, Barry, Cronkhite, Miley and Funston, but not the Presidio or Fort Mason.
At the end of WWII it became a sub post of the SF Presidio and in 1946 became the home of the US Army's Coast Artillery School for a short time.
